State Representative helps out at Suffield Mobile Foodshare

Yesterday, State Representative Tami Zawistowski helped out at the Mobile Foodsharedistribution site in Suffield. Foodshare distributes fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as other perishable food at West Suffield Congregational Church, 1408 Mountain Rd. (Corner of Rt. 168 & Rt. 187). 
 
Approximately 50-75 local residents receive food at the site, which is also seeking volunteers to help distribute food from their food pantry on Thursday evenings. The next mobile distribution will be on Tuesday, August 12, 2014 at 1:45 pm.

Thank you, Representative Zawistowski, for accepting the invitation to meet those served by our program in her district.

We encourage all state legislators and town officials to come out and visit a program the provides food to people in need in your community.  It can be quite an eye-opening experience!  You can help by encouraging your elected officials to do so!  All you have to do is email Sarah Santorato learn what's happening in your community and to arrange a visit.
